12-Jul-09 Buskers Night at General Havelock East Sleekburn

We'd not been to one of Ken Phillipson's nights for some time, and so decided to pay a visit to the General Havelock and play a few songs at the Buskers Night. There were a handful of performers and the PA gear was set up in the corner of the bar area.

We played 6 songs - the first 3 through the PA and the last 3 acoustically. For some reason the guitar cable would not work in Val's Taylor 855 12-string guitar! (Sigh...) Our set was:

  • Love At The Five & Dime (Nanci Griffith)
  • Two Old Friends (Chris Simpson)
  • Dream On (jiva)
  • Different Dreams (jiva)
  • Some Way Home (jiva)
  • Back Home To You (Allan Taylor)

First thing we did when we got back home was to plug Val's 12-string into our Bose L1 system... no problem, it sounded exactly as it should. What is it about cables? We're definitely going to have to carry our own if we want to be 100% certain.
